Demons Beside You (The Demons Beside Me)

"Thank you for your patronage. It's twenty-three dollars in total."

Phil settled the bill, took the packaged food, and was about to go back to the car when he suddenly felt something stung under his feet.

After taking two steps, he suddenly felt dizzy, and he barely supported himself and took another two steps.

But at the third step, he finally lost his balance.

Phil gritted his teeth. He had seen that a woman who was sitting in the corner had stood up, and judging from her movements, it was obvious that she was drawing a gun.

Phil, who deals with the police a lot and has been jailed four times, has already recognized the woman as a police officer.

A strong will made him take out his gun. At this moment, a black figure rushed over and bit his wrist.

"what……"

Phil's gun had already fallen on the ground, and before he could pick it up, Ge Lin stepped forward and kicked the gun.

"Don't move!"

"Ge Lin, he can't move anymore, but I need to give him some first aid... That clerk, don't be so nervous, this lady is a policeman, and this person is a wanted criminal. We have already called the police, so I won't bother you. Call the police."

Although Raymond is a demon, he is also a poisonous snake and carries neurotoxins.

Fortunately, his venom is not very strong, at least much weaker than Viper, and the main effect of this toxin is not death, but hallucination.

In fact, Ge Lin misunderstood the wanted criminal Phil, who was poisoned by Raymond.

And Raymond is the subordinate demon of the King of Lust. His venom has a psychedelic effect, and even has an aphrodisiac effect, so Phil, who is in a coma at the moment, may be doing a glamorous and fragrant dream.

Fortunately, the whole process went smoothly, and Ge Lin couldn't believe it.

A felon who killed three people was caught so easily.

All credit to Ramon and Beelzebub, especially Ramon.

Ge Lin has seen well-trained police dogs, and their performance is no worse than Beelzebub. The difference is only in size.

But she had never seen such a smart pet snake.

He actually knows how to make such complicated instructions, and Chen Zhao will let it bite whoever it will really bite.

When Chen Zhao proposed this plan, Ge Lin felt that Chen Zhao was crazy.

How could a snake possibly understand such complex instructions?

But it turns out that Raymond can really do it, and it's very accurate.

It really understood what Chen Zhao meant.

Chen Zhao gave Phil a little blood, at least so that he would not die of poisoning.

Although Raymond's toxin is not very strong, if it is not handled in time, it may still cause death.

Green had handcuffed Phil, who was unconscious, and could wait for the police car and ambulance to arrive.

"Chen, I'm sorry for ruining this dinner."

"You did nothing wrong, no need to apologize."

"Also, thank you, Raymond, little devil... Chen, do they know what I'm talking about? Or do they need some special gestures?"

"No, they're smart."

Fortunately, there are no cameras in the restaurant. In fact, the coverage of cameras in cities in the United States is far less than that in China.

Because Phil had just been arrested, the dinner and after-dinner programs were no longer available. Ge Lin needed to return to the police station in person to record the arrest process.

However, Ge Lin didn't tell the real person involved, she just speculated that Phil might have been bitten by a poisonous snake when he entered the restaurant, and then he was about to resist with a gun, and was bitten on the wrist by Beelzebub, without mentioning Raymond .

After all, if it was said that he was actually plotted by someone who controlled the poisonous snake, either everyone would treat her as a lunatic, or Raymond would enter the laboratory.

When Chen Zhao returned home, he found that there was a very large piece of the demon crystal in the metal box.

Chen Zhao sucked in a breath of cold air. This is bigger than the previous few demon crystals, and it is bigger than the sum of it.

The first few demon crystals can only be used as units. This demon crystal can be used as a unit. It is the size of half an adult's fist.

This must have been obtained by catching the fugitive, but catching a fugitive actually got such a big chunk. Could it be that the value of being a policeman catching a bad person is greater than that of a doctor saving someone?

No, it shouldn't be counted like this. It should be that if that person is not caught, it is likely to cause more casualties, so such a big reward is given.

At this time, Ge Lin's call came: "Chen, thank you so much today."

"Uh... Ge Lin, why are you so polite? We shouldn't need to be so polite."

"No, it is necessary, you don't know, that bastard, he killed far more than three people. We also rescued three girls from the temporary den he confessed. Fortunately, we found them in time, otherwise, they It will be very tragic.”

"Actually it's nothing."

Chen Zhao guessed in his heart, could this be something like merit.

It's just that this thing is called a demon crystal by the demon, and Chen Zhao took out the small demon crystal before.

"You two come here."

"Human, what to do."

"This thing is called a demon crystal by you, isn't it?"

"Yes."

"So is there such a thing in hell?"

"Yes, but very, very rare."

"What is the general way to obtain demon crystals in hell?"

"How is it possible for an ordinary demon to obtain it, even a big demon would have to pay a great price to obtain it."

"Then who bought the big devil from?"

"It should be a mine. There is very little content in this demon mine."

"How did the Devil Mine come to be?"

"After the souls of human beings fall into hell, most of them will suffer torment and suffering because of their sins in life. After decades or hundreds of years, they will dissipate into fragments, and those great demon lords will put these fragments. Buried in some special areas, when the soul fragments are piled up to a certain number, after hundreds of years, demon ore will be produced, and demon crystals are the accompanying minerals of demon ore."

Chen Zhao thought about it, if this demon crystal is merit or something.

So can it be inferred that those who fell into hell are all sinners, but even sinners may have done some good deeds before their death, so they also accumulated a small amount of merit and turned into soul fragments after they suffered all the hardships, and Soul fragments still contain their merits, and after the formation of demon mines over time, merits also condense into demon crystals.

"This thing can only be used by demons?"

"Of course!" Beelzebub and Raymond said in unison.

"If anyone tells me that humans can use it, then this demon crystal will belong to whoever."

The two demons looked at each other, neither of them said anything.

Chen Zhao glanced at the two demons, and it seemed that they were determined not to tell him.
